As we all know when the war started we thought the British would win but luck was at patriot’s side. Many factors influenced in the war for the patriots to obtain victory. The first one was the overlaps of cofidence and the lack of seriousness from the british, then the british misunderstood the war, they thought it was a classical european war in which people fight for land or for honoring a king, but this time, it was different, it was a revolutionary war in which they fought for freedom and life. From this point now on in history everything went downfall for the british, their were loosing all the battles against the patriots, first the battles of Lexington and Concord, then Princeton after trenton, then the battle of Bunkerhill, and later on the battle of monmouth. The main factor for the win of the patriots was their alliance with the french, and thier secretly alliance with the spanish, they provided the patriots with ammo, knowledge, supplies, men. This were some of the most known events that led to the victory of the Patriots against Britain.

Early victories won by the british.
In the south as in the north the british win most of the battles and capture many sea ports. The british used their advantage in quantity and attacked many patriot strategic spots, the british’s first attack was in late 1778, they capture Savannah, Georgia. This was a battle to remember because at this point of time in history the patriots had a great advantage because of the alliance with France, and the Spanish, but after they lost this battle they continued fighting like heros and stud up fr themselves.
They second British attack was considered as the biggest blow the patriots had suffered in a single battle. At the spring 1780, the British capture Charleston, South Carolina, and capture 5,000 patriot soldiers.
This was one of the best moves the British had performed in years.
This event is known as one of the most harsh attacks the Continental Army had recieved.
The third and last victory the British had was in the summer of 1780, the british capture Camden, South Carolina.
